Chapter 6 FBD Block  Diagram Programming    183 
MU (Modbus) function block 
There is a maximum of 250 MU (Modbus) function blocks under FBD mode, can be set mode 1~5 and the function is 
same as Ladder mode. 
 
Remote IO and IO Link are precedence than MU. MU is executed when the system setting is N (No Remote IO) and 
ID isn’t 0. 
 
Function mode corresponding communication function code: 
 
mode Communication function code 
1  03 (read registers) 
2  06 (write single register) 
3  10 (write multiple registers) 
4  01 (read coils) 
5  05 (write single coil) 
 
※ The max data length for Mode 1 and 3 is 25words. The max data length for Mode 4 is 400bits. 
 
The coil used in MU function: 
 
M3D: Received  M3D is set to ON after received, then check-up for error. Transferring data to 
target address if there is no error. 
M3E: Error flag    communication error flag 
M3F: Time out flag  M3F is set to 1 when the time from after sending to start receiving is longer 
than setting, and M3D also be set to 1. M3F is automatically reset if M3D reset.
 
The time out time is depending communication baud rate as shown in the table below: 
 
Baud rate (bps)  Time  out (ms) 
4800、9600、19200、38400 
125 
57600 100 
115200 80
